Lots of folks with the same problems: http://www.google.com/search?q=ghost+pata+sata http://www.google.com/search?q=ghost+pata+sata+bsod One of the early hits suggested trying an F6-repair reinstall after restoring to the SATA drives. Another hit said this wouldn't work, and to try the following: Blue screen during Windows Setup in repair mode. : blue, screen, during, windows Go into the bios of the new board and take the sata controllers out of native mode (they call this different things on different boards could be compatibility mode or raid mode) but there should be an option for your sata controllers to look like ide controllers and allow you to finish the repair installation http://209.85.173.104/search?q=cache:4dPpaUdtiRYJ:www.experts- exchange.com/OS/Microsoft_Operating_Systems/Windows/XP/Q_22713483.html+ ghost+pata+sata+bsod&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=22&gl=us&client=firefox-a -- Angus Scott-Fleming http://www.geoapps.com/ ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
